we can all be porters now

People don't want to watch reruns

we were given $1000/mo limits. when i asked if i could have the cash instead of using Claude i was laughed at.

curious (well not really) that it is only consumer grade. nothing about business grade, of even a deliniation as to where "pro-sumer" falls. if this is a big brother situation then the consumer only thing makes perfect sense. it also drives users back to isp supplied hardware which means more rental fees, so more money CEOs.

"i love you bro".

something to let him know you support him and he can rely on you. definitely nothing apologetic or mournful, this isn't a bad thing.

if he's cool you could go with "duh" or "makes sense" or to quote my wife "I could have told you that".

oh I'll lock in, but I have no choice what i will lock in to, nor how long I'll be locked in.

I've been working on this lately, what I find helpful is reminding myself that the chore doesn't have to be done perfectly, and that some progress is better than no progress. I struggle with perfectionism and will put off tasks indefinitely because of fear that if I start wrong or don't finish it immediately it won't be perfect. My therapist helped me to realize that perfect is the enemy of done, and that it is ok if something isn't done perfectly.

This is a man who truly loves his country and countrymen.

Lots of good technical starting points here. I don't want to prematurely discourage you, but before you get into any code, evaluate your problem solving abilities. If that is an area you struggle in, work on that first, or at least in conjunction with programming basics.

I've worked with engineers who have all the code skills, but when faced with a complex issue, struggled to break it down into it's simplest components and wound up with a messy, over-engineered solution.

To add to your point, a lot of comedy involves taking the power away from the powerful, and look who's powerful right now

That shouldn't even be classified as violence since it is a response to actions that are a direct threat to life.

it has been my experience that avoiding these type of tasks leads to me completing my personal "backlog" of projects. so if you are struggling with how you feel after avoiding said task, try to look at what you did get done and take those minor victories.

we were mandated to double our output to justify what the company is spending on Claude and to do so we were told to use god awful skills that are constructed in a way that often ignore guide rails and bypass permission rules causing more time to be wasted in debugging and fixing shitty ai slop than would have been spent actually by humans planning and implementing sound changes.

I am in my 40s, Wall-e is probably my favorite movie, but that may speak more towards me getting some sort of validation from my neurodivergence assigning personalities and human-like emotions to inanimate objects.

Sounds a lot like hyper-focus to me too, but like most traits shared by ADHD and Autism, there are probably some subtle differences. Personally I find the inertia terminology to be more representative of my experience.

and global warming is my fault because I driver older internal combustion engine vehicles and do not have solar panels on my roof. every time I read about data centers I can feel my brain accumulating more and more injuries.

Echoing what others have said, get the meds. I'm 39 and have been taking Vyvanse for a couple years; when I forget I am a mess, I can't believe I made it this far without.
